D365 SCM 10.0.49: What's New for Warehouse Management 

The 10.0.49 release does not have one big new feature. But if you use Advanced Warehouse Management, or WMS-only mode, there are a few changes worth knowing about.

ASNs now go through a message queue 

Before, the system tried to create warehouse records as soon as a shipping notice arrived. Now, incoming shipping notices go through a queue called the Message Processor, handled as "dispatch advice" messages instead.

Why it helps:  

• The system will not link an ASN to a purchase order until that order actually exists in D365. This should stop most "ASN arrived too early" errors. 

• If a vendor sends a corrected notice, the new version replaces the old one cleanly, including removing lines that were dropped. 

• Vendor item numbers are matched to internal item numbers automatically. 

IT and integration teams should see the biggest benefit, with less time spent fixing broken or stuck ASN messages. Note that this only applies to items using Advanced Warehouse Management, not WMS-only mode.  

The possible downside is that existing integrations built on the old ASN data entities may need rework to use the new dispatch advice entities 

New inventory status mapping for WMS-only mode 

You can now set up your own mapping between the inventory statuses used in an outside ERP system and the statuses used inside D365 WMS, separately for each source system.

This removes the need for custom code to translate status codes (for example, old quality codes) into something D365 understands, and it works with inbound and outbound shipment updates and business events in WMS-only mode. 

This should be a real benefit for supervisors too, since it helps ensure stock status and hold status finally stay in sync between the ERP and D365 WMS.  

Locations can now be limited to one owner 

The Owner tracking dimension itself is not new. WOM already lets you track who owns the inventory (like consignment stock or goods belonging to different companies). 

A new setting at the Location Profile level stops the system from mixing stock owned by different parties in the same location. When turned on, D365 checks the Owner dimension of any stock already in that location. If stock is present, it blocks put way or movement of goods belonging to a different Owner.  

Super useful if you deal with consignment stock or store goods for more than one company and you want  physical separation. 

Dynamic work classification is now required (General Availability) 

This feature is not new to this release, it was first introduced in version 10.0.48, but with version 10.0.49, it is not officially in GA and mandatory, meaning it cannot be turned off. 

This is a particularly interesting feature for us specifically, as it makes it finally lets you reclassify and update work parameters after the work has already been created, like when a load of detail changes the line. 

Normally in D365 WMS, every variation in your process requires its own separate work template. Different carriers, different priorities, or a different bay door? That means a new template every time. If you have a complex warehouse, you end up managing dozens of templates. 

Dynamic work classification replaces most of those static templates with a single Power Fx formula. The formula checks the actual work details at runtime (which carrier, how urgent, scheduled ship time) and sets parameters like work pools, priorities, and location directive codes automatically.  

InterRadish team demo-ed the feature during Dynamics Minds 2026. We will publish a separate, more detailed post on how to set up and test this feature soon.
